Owing of Selves and ordinary adventures in them the

Nobleman, Knowing that he was seeking a row, he took a weapon with him.
The most popular was the black saber: "It was used from all circumstances, in which the tumult was expected, and then the sewers. " Nobility of German origin, or presenting this type of fashion used a slightly lighter weapon: "German and double -edged rapirs were taken to such specimens". The perfect saber was made like that, that she was bending almost to the handle, and then she straightened herself. The best sabers came from Kuźnice Wyszyński. The saber as a traditional Polish weapon often grew up to the rank of souvenirs and the family treasury. According to Kitowicz: "[…] Not only between small nobility, but also between the most possible saber panes went from father to son, From son to grandson and there further successful between the most expensive gems. ". She was one of the symbols of nobility, because it was she who distinguished the nobility from the rich bourgeoisie, So she was cared for with special attention. This type of white weapon was susceptible to the influence of fashion trends. The tendency to reduce the weight of the weapon is clearly visible when trying to preserve its effectiveness, what Kitowicz gives: "Simple sabers came later, Staszówki, Spanish Spanish and light, which not so much at the side, They served well to defend and drive away the surprise assault. " The saber itself has also evolved, efforts were made to improve the swordsman's hand cover by fixing various metal elements there. Despite the gradual evolution of white weapons in those days and fashion, The black saber remained a customary weapon for duels: "[…] The black saber was used for a duel, the most with this weapon ".
The next weapon used in the quarrels was the Pierziak and its derivatives (ended with the end of, ice ax). This type of weapon also gave in to fashion, There were copper and silver copies. Kitowicz in his relationship reports that the Pierziak was a truly rude weapon, Due to its effectiveness. The wounds inflicted were very deep and difficult to cure. Kitowicz writes, that Poles were "specialists" in the use of this kind of weapon: "It was a terrible tool in the hand of a Pole, how much then, where there was a mood to be won and battles willing. One of the other was cut off his hand, He cut out his mouth, he wounded his head, Therefore, the blood from the adversary stopped stubbornness. He inflicted a fatal wound with a habit, not seeing blood; And that's why - not seeing her - he didn't commemorate, Healing once and - without offending the skin - he broke the ribs and fatten the bones. Gentry, Walking with these obuchies, The health of her subjects perceived them the most, and often life. " Here comes the difference between the saber and the stuff. Well, the injuries dealt with the saber were visible, which allowed the fighting to be a certain injury of the opponent, However, the injuries dealt with the stuffer are stabbed (with the end of the skewer) or mashed (with a rounded tip). Such injuries are very dangerous, but they look harmless, And in the heat of the fight, they can be overlooked, What was quite common by thinking about what Kitowicz gives. The puppet had such an ominous opinion that it was banned from having it in the regional councils and various tribunals where there were usually force conflicts often. It was moved to the fact that a plaque was suspended at the Gniezno cathedral church: "Warning about a curse on such, who would come to that truck with such an instrument with such an instrument, weighed. " Kitowicz gives examples of great effectiveness of this weapon, and thus his sinister reputation: "The instrument was a truly robber, Because when one of the other ended with a sharp clip after the armchair [outside the ear] he killed right away, driving the iron in the temple up to the outlet. "
These are the two most famous types of weapons used in noble quarrels. In addition, various types of white weapons were used, like knives or daggers, and as needed by everything that was at hand - stools, stools, bench, cover, In a word of everything you could "apply", However, we think about the saber and the stuffer when we imagine participating in the inn. And the fight could explode for such a trivial reason as a losing bolt party ...
